Tomasz Konieczny

I currently offer both face to face and online therapy sessions during the week. My working hours are Monday to Friday, between 8am and 9pm, which includes daytime and evening appointments.

Face to face sessions take place in Medway. Online sessions are offered via Zoom and can be accessed from anywhere within the UK.

Availability can vary depending on demand. If you are considering therapy with me, I encourage you to get in touch to ask about current openings. I aim to respond to enquiries promptly during working hours.

I do not usually work weekends or bank holidays. 

If you are unsure whether my availability fits with your schedule, you are welcome to ask. We can talk through options and see whether it feels workable before you commit.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step. Often people come because something isn’t working anymore, a relationship feels stuck, anxiety is getting louder, or life has shifted and old ways of coping aren’t enough. My role is to offer a steady, grounded space where you don’t have to perform, explain yourself perfectly, or have all the answers.

I work in a direct, human, and collaborative way. I’m warm and supportive, but I’m also active in sessions, I’ll reflect what I notice, ask questions that gently challenge patterns, and help you make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface. Therapy with me isn’t about endless talking in circles; it’s about understanding yourself more clearly and finding ways to move forward that actually fit your life.

My work is integrative, drawing mainly from person-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural approaches. In practice, that means we pay attention both to what’s happening now and where certain patterns may have come from, while also focusing on practical change. I don’t follow a fixed formula, we shape the work around you (or around you both, if you’re coming as a couple).

Alongside individual therapy, I offer couples counselling, working with partners who feel disconnected, stuck in repeated arguments, or unsure how to communicate without things escalating or shutting down. I help couples slow things down, understand what’s really being triggered, and begin having more honest and meaningful conversations.

I offer face-to-face sessions in Medway, as well as online therapy. Some people value the grounding of being in the same room; others prefer the flexibility of online work, both can be effective, and we can talk about what suits you best.

If you’re feeling unsure whether therapy is right for you, that’s okay. Many people I work with start from exactly that place.

My practice is a place where you can talk openly about what’s going on for you, without needing to have everything worked out in advance. People come feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or frustrated with patterns that keep repeating in their lives or relationships.

I work in an active and collaborative way. I am not a passive listener who simply sits back and nods. I listen carefully, ask questions, reflect what I notice, and offer observations that can help you see things more clearly. At times I will gently challenge you, especially when something feels important but difficult to look at. The aim is not to push, but to support change rather than just talk about it.

Depending on what you need, we may look at past experiences and how they still shape your reactions today, or focus more on what is happening in the present and how to respond differently. I also help you develop practical ways of managing emotions, communicating more effectively, and making changes that feel realistic rather than overwhelming.

Alongside individual therapy, I work with couples who feel stuck in repeated arguments, emotional distance, or breakdowns in communication. In sessions, I help slow things down, make sense of what is happening underneath the conflict, and support more honest and constructive conversations.

I offer face to face sessions in Medway as well as online therapy. If you are unsure what to expect from therapy, I will take time to explain how we will work and check that the approach feels right for you.

My aim is to offer therapy that is supportive, engaged, and genuinely helpful, not just a space to talk, but a place where things can start to shift.

Starting therapy can feel uncertain, especially if you have never done it before. The first session is a chance for us to get a sense of each other and to decide whether working together feels right for you.

Before booking a session, I offer a free 20-minute phone or Zoom consultation. This is an informal conversation where you can tell me a bit about what is bringing you to therapy, ask questions, and hear how I work. There is no pressure to commit. It is simply a way to see whether this feels like a good fit.

In the first full session, I will take an active role in helping us understand what you are coming in with. We will talk about what has brought you to therapy, what feels most difficult right now, and what you would like to get out of the work. I may ask questions to help clarify things, but this is not an assessment in the medical sense, and there are no right or wrong answers.

We will also go through the practical side of our work together, including confidentiality, boundaries, and fees, so everything is clear from the start.

You do not need to prepare anything in advance. Some people like to make notes, others prefer to see what comes up on the day. Both are fine. You are free to share at your own pace, and I will help guide the session so it feels contained and manageable.

Towards the end of the session, we will talk about next steps. If we decide to continue, we can agree on how often to meet and what the focus of the work might be. If it does not feel like the right fit, that is okay, and I can help you think about other options.

My aim in the first session is to help you feel supported, understood, and clear about what working with me would be like.
